 | League Gives Funk 3-Game Suspension Monday, June 13th, 2033 Hassle an umpire and you will have to pay the consequences. Just ask Montebello first baseman Derek Funk. He argued to excess over a third strike yesterday in the Montebello-Ocean Park game at Ballpark of Ocean Park. Today the league office notified Funk that he had been given a 3-game suspension for his egregious conduct. Luckily the Tostadas Calientes manager and the bench coach intervened physically and removed him from the field. Otherwise it might have gotten even worse. For the year Funk is batting .359 with 14 hits and no home runs. He has scored 6 times and driven in 6. |   |
